PPG.report now works globally
Thank you u/aeharding !!! I use ppg.report regularly -- you can Sponsor/support Alexander and his hard work here: https://github.com/sponsors/aeharding

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
https://ppg.report
Shows a nicely formatted weather report for flying my paramotor, pulling data in from many different sources :-)

Flying in Restricted Airspace - You can do it! [US]
Why use it when you have Windy.com and Windy.app and ppg.report and aviationweather.gov ?

Best weather app?
Yep I like ppg.report for quick no fluff wind speeds at different altitudes. When I just want to basics standing in the field or driving to an LZ, Windy is for large screen analyses at home days beforehand.
-
Can we share the apps we all using for Paramotoring?
PPG.report (web) - I have it as an Icon on my iPhone for quick access to the NOAA GFS model data, which gives you 24 hours of wind predictions at different altitudes. It is not always accurate, but it IS predicting a solid 20 km square. I prefer this now over RyanCarlton.com because there are weather forecasts and airspace restrictions built in. It's very pretty too! I think Alexander Harding lurks in here. You can see and view the code for the website too. You can donate to Alexander's work on Github as well.

So excited for colors outside of sRGB! I make good use of display-p3, currently only supported in Safari, on https://ppg.report.

Ask HN: What not-profit-seeking project are you tinkering with this week?
https://ppg.report
Flying my paramotor is one of the things I love to do in my free time, and this project (weather report for paramotor pilots) is the result of that!
Also open source https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report

Dropping the Windy App...Need another app to check for conditions
I like ppg.report, but I always thought it was just a re-skined version of wind.ppgzone.com

How much updraft velocity is too much for a newer pilot?
https://ppg.report/ and RyanCarlton.com show you CAPE and CIN.

Where can I get the current local aviation forecast in my area? Especially cloud base? Thanks.
It only works if your location is within 30 miles of an airport. In which case you will see a little widget in the header, as seen here: https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report/releases/tag/v2.1.0

Making TV Useful For My 94-yr-old Aunt
In my experience, modern entertainment takes too much cognitive load to get up and running. With streaming/on demand, I have to make pointed decisions on what show I'm watching. I don't always want to make a decision right now of what to watch, I just want to watch something that's good enough or fits a certain theme. TV Channel creation programs, like DizqueTV[0] or ErsatzTV[1] have taken the load off, or at least lets me do that cognitive work in advance when making the channels.
You still need some way to get input to swap between these digital channels (I use Plex to surface my shows and schedule), but if you have existing local content it really feels like the "old" way of doing TV. You can even add commercials between episodes if you wanted!
I'm not sure if I'd call this foolproof for a 94-year-old, especially since sometimes the software needs to restart, but it's a step above modern streaming IMO.

For those interested in doing something similar there's a Plex add-on for making custom TV channels:
https://github.com/vexorian/dizquetv
Personally I want almost this. I want to rotate the TV shows my kids watch in the morning but I don't want to start part way through a show (the one part of the old analogue experience that I don't miss at all). Difficult to square that circle.

Seperate dizqueTV Instances on 15-20 Devices
My idea is for each screen plugged in to its own Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 4GB running at the CLI. The Pi would have its own instance of dizqueTV and its stream viewed through some type of custom program running SMPlayer that is also on the PI and outputting the to hdmi port. DizqueTV would have FFMPEG disabled and the content directly accessed per this guide: https://github.com/vexorian/dizquetv/wiki/Raspberry-guide

Gamechanger Plex TV channels with dizquetv. Didn't know about this until tonight!
I have a potato (J4105) Plex server and tried DizqueTV, ErsatzTV and Jason's DizqueTV fork very recently. But I couldn't get it stable unfortunately. When one series would work great, another one wouldn't, or even refused to play. Or certain program boundaries made the player crash from time to time. And watermark overlays were another story of it's own.
